grown ups……"
Willas walked in from the door playfully, slightly sticking out her cute pink tongue.
"Is Master Akara that scary?"
I smiled and shook my head. This girl, I don’t even know what to say - she has been standing outside for a while, and I just saw Akara and a few tough warriors inside. He was guarding the door, so he never dared to come in. Speaking of Akara's kind-hearted appearance, is he really as unapproachable as Vilas made him look?
"It's not scary, it's just that I didn't expect the respected Lord Akala to be right in front of me. I didn't know how to greet her or what to say, so I kept hesitating and didn't come in."
She wrinkled her nose and handed me a glass of water with a smile.
"Well, thanks!! Huh? Vilas, why did your hair change?"
After sleeping for a few days, I was really thirsty. While I was grateful for Willas's thoughtfulness, I looked up and found that her hairstyle seemed to be very different from before.
Her silky-smooth slightly curly hair has now been combed straight by her. Only the ends of her hair still have a trace of waves, probably because she didn't have time to straighten them. You know, there is no such thing as electric hair or water spray in this world. It's not an easy thing to change your hairstyle. Of course, there may be other tips. After all, the people here are definitely not low on intelligence.
In short, Willas' original black and slightly curly hair has been pulled straight and draped smoothly on her back. At first glance, it seems to have grown a lot. In front of her forehead, there were bangs that reached the level of her eyebrows. However, the most eye-catching thing was that her black hair on the left side, roughly above the temple, had a neat bunch of two-finger-thick hair. The middle of the hair bundle is fixed by a small dark blue hair bundle. There is also a cute ornament with ethnic characteristics hanging at the end of the hair bundle. Compared with the waterfall-like long hair hanging down to the waist at the back . This separate strand of hair is placed in the front, making it look particularly cute and eye-catching.
"Nothing has changed anywhere!"
When I asked this question, Vilas' face turned pale for some reason. The red hair suddenly dropped down, and his two small hands kept gently playing with the neat black hair on his chest.
"What's the point?"
I asked curiously. It has been more than a year since I came to this world, and I have a general understanding. In this world with many races, just humans, different tribes may have different customs and habits, generally speaking. This place is not like the old world, where you always change your hairstyle from time to time for the sake of beauty. Most people if it means nothing special. Hairstyles in general. I will never change the place again in my life.
"Ah... ah..., haha... this. Yes... yes, sir, you just woke up, you must be hungry. If you want to eat something, I will make it for you right away."
Vilas clasped her hands in front of her chest, her dark eyes darting around, not daring to look directly, obviously trying to avoid the topic.
Anyway, I will leave this village soon, and I probably won’t have much chance to see Vilas again. Thinking of this, I can’t help but feel a little sad. This kind and lovely girl is really hard to let go of easily. Forgot about it.
"Then, just give me the Momo noodles you made last time."
I remembered the weird-colored but delicious breakfast she made last time, and I couldn't help but smile.
"Yes~~Yes~~,, one, Vilas's face came close to her, her index finger was raised slightly, as if she was looking forward to my nodding in approval.
"Okay, you just have to make the decision." I nodded in response.
Please wait patiently for a while, it will be ready soon. "He ran a few steps, then turned back and smiled at me.
Seeing that bright and lovely smile, my mood rose up unconsciously. How should I put it, Vilas has a rather special charm. Generally speaking, maturity means stability, which may not be the case for girls. It has a sexy or charming meaning, but I can only describe the maturity of Willas as cute, just like a kitten. Even if it is mature, it is still extremely cute in the eyes of others. It has something that other animals do not have, which makes people The charm of unconscious doting and protection.
Within a few minutes, Veras walked in with two wooden bowls in her hands. Then, just like last time, she mixed the contents of the two bowls together and made her special Momo noodles on the spot. The taste was still the same. It's as delicious as last time, but it would be better if the color could be improved. After all, no matter how delicious the ice cream is, not many people can eat it if it is made into the color and shape of feces.
After breakfast, my physical strength seemed to have recovered a bit. I couldn't wait to go out and have a look. After staying in this dim cabin for a few days, my eyes almost glowed.
As soon as I stepped out of the gate, a dazzling light shone over me, forcing me to cover my eyes with my hands. It took me a while to get used to it. What lay in front of me was the beautiful green prairie of Vitas Village. In the morning, the fresh morning air blew towards my face. I took a deep breath and my mind suddenly became much clearer.
"Sir, your cloak..." The attentive Willas caught up with me, holding my white cloak in her hand.
"Oh, thanks."
I was so happy that I forgot about it, but I was so lucky that when I was in a coma, I was not corrupted by the alcoholic woman Kasha. Even if she still has some conscience, I happily put on my cloak, put on my hat, and equipped myself with the unique The energy immediately flowed through all parts of my body. Unfortunately, the wizard skill "Ice Encapsulation Armor" attached to the cloak, I tried it, but it did not activate. It seemed that my body had not fully recovered. I thought After thinking about it, I didn't force it to start. I'll wait until I recover.
Stepping on the hard dirt path in the countryside and breathing in the fresh morning air, my whole body seemed to come to life. Even my steps were a little brisk, while Vilas followed slowly behind me. When I asked her how her job at the bar was, she just blinked and smiled, and did not answer my question. Hey, this little girl seemed to be becoming more and more unrestrained in front of me, although I can't say it was bad. But when we first met, her rabbit-like timidity and cuteness were quite memorable.
The fighting had been over for several days. Some of the soldiers responsible for staying in Vitas Village have returned to the camp. Those who are more diligent may have started training again. But of course there are exceptions, for example...
"Uncle Lar, and Uncle Doug and Uncle Geff. You guys seem to be having a good time, don't you?"
When I arrived at the exquisite little bar in Vitas Village, I immediately spotted three figures that made my teeth itch.
"Ah, isn't this our good brother--Wu!? Hahahahaha..." The three men who had fallen in the bar smiled awkwardly.
"What are you talking about? We have been worried about you, so we stayed here specially, but we have absolutely no intention of taking the opportunity to relax and enjoy ourselves. You know, how anxious I am to go home. Go and My beautiful wife and lovely daughter are reunited, isn’t it all for you!”
Lal stood up. He patted my shoulder seriously, and his expression didn't seem fake. If I could drink it from the other hand,
He put down the ale glass and wiped the foam from the corner of his mouth.
"That's right, what the boss said is right. We have been worried about you these past few days. Look, I haven't spoken to you for almost several days."
Doug said with a sad expression. If what he said was true, it would be an incredible sacrifice. However, it would be more credible if he could release his other hand from Marton's shoulder. What about higher?
This guy Gefu was pretty good. At least he didn't lie. He was not good at expressing himself. He just looked at me happily and drank the ale in his hand. He was much cuter than the other guys.
"Wu, congratulations on your recovery!" Dhruv stood up and hugged me sincerely.
"Cute little brother Wu, my sister is very worried about you."
Her wife, Haina, also hugged me gently, pursed her lips, and looked at me carefully with her gentle eyes.
"Congratulations..." This guy Marton is really not sweet.
"Come, sit down and have a drink. You are a famous person now."
Doug, this guy, patted me on the shoulder with a force that was even more amazing than an elephant.
I endured the pain in my shoulder and glared at him: "I don't need to drink anymore. I've been sleeping for a few days. I want to go for a walk around the village later to check out the situation, and..." I stood up for a rare moment. , puff out your chest.
"What does it mean to be a famous person now? Wasn't it me before?"
Seeing what Doug wanted to say, Lar stopped him with one hand. Although he was a little sinister, he was a careful guy. He probably saw something wrong with my body when Doug patted me on the shoulder.
"Okay, okay, forced wine is not sweet. Let Wu go. As a special operations team member of the village, this is what he should do."
I glanced at him gratefully.
"Then, you can chat slowly, I'll leave first."
I raised my cloak and walked out amidst the various looks from other people.
"Vilas, what are you doing?"
Opening the thick wooden door of the bar, I shouted to the waitresses who were huddled together at the counter. This girl was following me. As soon as she entered the bar, she was pulled over by several other waitresses. She didn't know what to say. What.
"Well, sir, wait for me!"
I don't know what the other people said, but Vilas' pretty face turned red and she chased after the other waitresses' strange eyes.
"Huh?..." When I walked out of the door, I realized that something seemed wrong.
Why did he call her, and it was so natural? Could it be that he was already used to her existence?
The light footsteps behind me followed me. I shook my head and strode out. Anyway, I will be leaving here soon, so don’t think too much about it. In this strange world, my attitude towards feelings, especially I am cautious, I am afraid of hurting others, and I am even more afraid of others hurting me.
Along the way, I deliberately slowed down and carefully observed this small village that had experienced the baptism of war. The battle had ended for several days, and some of the adventurers had already left, but the villagers of Vitas who had originally moved to the Luoqiao camp for refuge , all came back, so instead of being deserted, the entire Vitas Village became even more lively. In addition to the adventurers, young villagers and children who were relatively rare before can now be seen everywhere.
Along the way, other adventurers seemed to move out of the way in unison. Some senior adventurers, or adventurers who had met me once before, came forward respectfully, greeted me, and expressed their most heartfelt wishes for my recovery. of joy and blessing.
The performance of the adventurers made many young people and children who had just returned from Rogge Camp look at me with curious eyes. Those large and small comments continued to reach my ears, some of which were relatively small. The children even came forward and looked at me carefully with their big innocent eyes. If they were not affected by the awe of the surrounding people, or if they were pulled by the adults, they would probably come up to me and look at me curiously. Asking questions here and there.
I finally understood that I seemed to have become the focus of the entire Virtuos. I didn’t know whether it was right or wrong to take this trip. I really feel a little regretful now, but if I don’t walk around carefully, I will see how hard I have worked. I still can't feel at peace with the situation of the small village I'm protecting, so now I can only bite the bullet and walk. Not to mention me, even Vilas behind me seemed like she couldn't stand the current atmosphere. She took a few steps forward and followed closely behind me. She held my elbow imperceptibly with one small hand, as if... Timid look.
Hum, you're afraid, you can finally understand what I feel. Seeing Vilas's appearance, I felt as if part of the awkwardness in my heart had been shared, and I couldn't help but relax.
After walking a few steps longer, Vilas and I soon passed through the village square where the crowds were the densest. Seeing that the hot gazes around us finally weakened, she and I couldn't help but sigh in unison. They looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
"Now I finally understand how you feel."
Willas said with lingering fear. She really couldn't understand that her friends in the village, whom she was usually so familiar with, made her so uncomfortable.
"Hey, that's why I said, I want to be a shepherd..." I sighed.
"Hehe, my lord's wish will definitely come true." Vilas stuck out her tongue from behind and comforted me happily.
Angstrom? Who is that old man? He is wearing a gray robe and a familiar crutch. He looks very familiar.
Wanting to see the current situation in the village, the first place I came to was naturally the part where I came into contact with the monster army - the northwest side of the village. However, when I went there, I immediately found a familiar figure standing there. On the sentry tower that had not yet been dismantled, there were still several soldiers around, and they seemed to have quite a lot of background.
After thinking about it for a while, I already had the answer. It was either Kane or Farah, but that old BT of Farah, with his strength, does he still need to bring a few soldiers to show off?
"Lord Kane, why are you here?"
I walked over with a smile. Seeing that Vilas was another big shot behind me, she stopped early and was spinning in embarrassment not far away.
"Haha, Wu, you woke up. I'm really sorry that I didn't have time to visit you."
Kane turned his head, holding a notebook and a quill stained with ink in his hands, probably recording something.
"No, I just woke up. Sir, are you recording something now?"
"That's right."
Kane nodded: "The scale of this monster attack is very rare in the entire history of Rogge Camp. I felt it was necessary to record it completely, so I followed Akara shamelessly. I will be subject to Detailed records of the 10 villages attacked
Kane's answer is not surprising. As a historian, it is strange that he is not interested in such relatively rare and large-scale wars.
Kane waved his hand gently, and the surrounding soldiers immediately dispersed. He and I were the only two people left in the entire sentry tower. Facing the gentle morning breeze, he stood on the high sentry step and carefully He looked down at half of Vitas Village, and then sighed heavily.
"Actually, I have always doubted the necessity of this battle. Among the four people, I am the only one who holds an opposing opinion."
